This can never work. It would effectively mean to stop further development of d-i over the lifetime of sarge, since there has to be a "critical fixes only" source tree for the stable release. I strongly recommend to create a "sarge" branch. This leaves HEAD unimpeded and allows stricter control over the release branch. Otherwise you'll have to scare off your co-developers all the time from doing what they like most: Implementing shiny new features.
